Participants please arrive early. We will depart promptly at 1pm and don’t want you to be left behind! Meet at the Sunne Farm Trailhead parking lot. Depending on the group’s ability, we will at least do the Redetzke Ridge Trail (RR) and maybe a little more, but aiming for about a three mile hike. Here’s the link to the trail map: http://www.parkrec.nd.gov/maps/parks/frsp_main_map.pdf

We will intersperse hiking with brief stops for guided programming and discussion. At the end of the hike, we will have a discussion at the trailhead area (about 1 hour). The basis of our discussion is the book The Way of Ignorance by Wendell Berry. You will get a good deal more from this program if you read the book beforehand.
